Introduction to LXD: The pure-container hypervisor

7 February 2018

What if you could move your Linux Virtual Machines straight to containers, easily, without modifying the apps or administration processes? LXD from Canonical is a pure-container hypervisor that takes the speed and latency of containers and brings them to the hypervisor world. LXD is a machine container, meaning they’re just like traditional physical and virtual machines. Join our webinar on 7th February with Technical Lead Stéphane Graber to learn:

Snaps week

February 13th and 15th, 2018

Snaps are containerised software packages that are simple to create and install, safe to run, and can work on all major Linux systems without modification. Whether you’re a developer, desktop user, or even a device manufacturer; you’re invited to learn about Snaps themselves, how they can be used, and the exciting use cases. Here are the webinars to look forward to during Snaps week:

An introduction to Snaps:

Get a basic look at Snaps from what they do to how they work. In addition, see how Snaps can provide an amazing experience from Desktop Linux to Servers to IoT devices.

Introduction to Juju: Automating cloud operations

28 February 2018

Modern software is getting complicated, and we’re simply not able to hire or train people fast enough to operate it due to the complexity of micro-services running across many machines. Juju from Canonical allows you to deploy open source operations code and model-driven operations at any scale on any cloud. Join the Juju team to find out:

The basics of Juju from Charms to Bundles

How to easily deploy solutions and scale up from one simple dashboard

How Juju can be used for deep learning, container orchestration, real-time big data, or stream processing

MAAS: Building the agile datacentre

On-demand

At Ubuntu Enterprise Summit, we took a look at MAAS (Metal As A Service). MAAS from Canonical allows you to provision and automate physical servers for amazing datacentre operational efficiency. In this on-demand webinar, learn how:

You can get the speed of bare metal but with the flexibility of the public cloud

Ubuntu Core

Ubuntu Core is a tiny, transactional version of Ubuntu for IoT devices and large container deployments. It runs a new breed of super-secure, remotely upgradeable Linux app packages known as snaps ‐ and it’s trusted by leading IoT players, from chipset vendors to device makers and system integrators.
